Loomis Mossyback BCR663

This is the 5'6", MH rod in the Mossyback series.  Does anybody have any experience with this rod?

The other day I realized that my shortest wormin' rod is 6'8".  I've been putting serious thought into purchasing a shorter rod, and this model caught my eye.

I'm not trying to be insulting but why would anyone want a 5'6 worm rod.  Or a 5'6 rod for any reason unless your catching shiners on it.

^^^ Agree. I would think you would want a 7' MBR to fish worms.

I want a shorter rod for beating the banks and dock fishing.  I have 6'8" and 7'1" worming/jigging rods, and want something else for tight quarters.

I have a medium powered 5'6" rod, but it is more of a mod to mod/fast action.  I want a more powerful, faster rod for plastics.  The 663 looks like it would fit the bill.  None of the shops around here carry this model, so I can't get a feel for it in person.

Evidently you've never fished in area's of restricted space. There is definately a place for the shorter rods .
